But they both fell in love with the same girl, and Kit being the handsomer, was acceptable in her eyes. Calling at her hut one evening Kit was received with smiles and poor Davy with coldness, and he discovered that the reason lies in Kit having already occupied the ground. Rendered unjust by jealousy he accused Kit of unfairness, and they fought it out in the snow, poor Davy receiving a sad mauling and left to nurse a broken head as well as a broken heart, while the conqueror walked off with his Mary, who loved him more than ever for his prowess. Davy vowed to have done forever with women and the settlements, and went trapping among the mountains. Mary and her Kit were married, and all was bright for them, until one winter night he cut his foot terribly while chopping wood. As the flow of blood could not be stopped, Mary ran to the nearest neighbors for help. Confused by night and snow she lost her way, and was finally overcome by fatigue and cold. Davy, on his way to the settlement to barter his peltries for supplies, crossed her trail, followed and rescued her and restored her to the arms of her husband. Time had benumbed his pains and he and Kit shook hands in sincere reconciliation. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
